In search of Yahoo Messenger 9.0 with Voice

Atlast I have found the hidden treasure. Its Yahoo Messenger 9.0 with Voice. After over 50-60 MB of useless downloading, I traced the version of Yahoo Messenger that I was looking for.

It all started from yesterday, when my old Yahoo Messenger 8.0 prompted me to download the latest available version. When I visited http://messenger.yahoo.com & downloaded the Yahoo Messenger 9.0 for India, I found that the CALL button had disappeared. I then recollected the earlier story which had happened with Yahoo Messenger 8.0. Though most of the forums mention that all versions of Yahoo Messenger allow free PC-to-PC Calls, I must admit that Yahoo Messenger with Voice is a different version from the Yahoo Messenger, which immediately gets advertised on the Yahoo Portal.

If you are a person who has suffered like me & wasted your precious Internet Bandwidth trying out various version of Yahoo Messenger 9.0, your search ends after reading this post. I have managed to download the Voice Call supported Yahoo Messenger 9.0 version from a different site. Though the downloaded version from the above link is 9.0.0.2018 & is the same version as available on http://messenger.yahoo.com for India, the version downloaded has Voice Call capabilities & the file downloaded from this link is an Offline Installer & will not ask for an Internet connection during installation. I presume that the Yahoo Messenger for India version does not include full Voice capabilities.

Strange enough, the link from where I downloaded the Voice Call supported Yahoo Messenger internally queries Yahoo Server itself, but this direct download link is not posted on Yahoo Portal. Anyways my purpose is solved & I hope that you would also be a satisfied Yahoo user after downloading this version.
